Marr Tartan

Historical Context

The Marr Tartan is deeply rooted in the heritage of Clan Mar, a Scottish clan that dates back to medieval times. Known as the Tribe of Mar, this clan originated in the Scottish Lowlands and was led by the first Earls of Mar. The title of Earl transitioned through notable families, including the Douglases, Stewarts, and ultimately the Erskines. Clan Mar is synonymous with nobility, strength, and courage, with prominent figures such as Sir Thomas Mar, who fought valiantly alongside William Wallace and Robert the Bruce during the Scottish Wars of Independence. The clan's ancestry traces back to Morgund of Mar, a figure of significance in the 11th century. The Marr Tartan, a vibrant representation of the clan’s legacy, is a testament to their enduring influence in Scottish culture.
